About
Invisible Stories is an innovative project funded by the European Union. It aims to address the complexity of contemporary migration and its impact on European identity in the classroom. Developed by an interdisciplinary team of experts from Poland, Belgium, and Spain, the project’s materials have been tested with hundreds of students across Europe to ensure their quality and effectiveness.
All materials are based on research conducted in the partner countries, and you can find the results in the Research Report
Migration and Multiculturalism in Schools
Teachers across Europe face the challenge of addressing migration and supporting students' social, cultural, and educational integration – a task that requires empathy, skill, and adaptability.
In our guide, you’ll find insights to help you create inclusive, thoughtful, and engaging learning environments. We highly recommend reading it before running any of the lessons.
Partnership
Invisible Stories is a project carried out by the partnership of three organizations:
School with Class Foundation
/ Poland
The mission of the Foundation is to provide every young person with positive and meaningful educational experiences that will help them become active, conscious, and responsible citizens of the world. The world of tomorrow depends on the education of today. To accomplish this mission, the organization works with teachers, educators and principals as key agents of change. It supports them in their professional development by implementing engaging teaching methods and tools. The Foundation has already collaborated with over 9,500 schools, 150,000 teachers and 2,000,000 students. Each year, it works with a vast network of schools (over 2,500 annually) across Poland as well as abroad.
The School with Class Foundation is the leader of the Invisible Stories project, responsible for the content of the lesson plans and project methodology.
Smilemundo
/ Spain
Smilemundo is a non-profit association based in Barcelona, Spain, founded in 2011. For more than a decade, our focus has been on developing high-quality educational content that promotes sustainable development and civic education. We create a variety of educational materials, including online and offline games, workshops, trainings, animations, and web-based platforms. Our innovative programs have been implemented in many countries, including Spain and Sri Lanka.
BELvue
/ Belgium
BELvue Museum is much more than a museum devoted to Belgium and its history. It is a project with an ambitious societal goal: to support and stimulate democratic and citizenship education for the public at large, and for young people in particular. The power of critical thinking about society is central to this project, always linked to historical awareness and an understanding of today’s challenges.
BELvue has developed tools on political citizenship, active citizenship, understanding of democracy, justice, financial education, media literacy, and historical consciousness.
BELvue is a project of the King Baudouin Foundation, which has been working for more than 45 years to promote sustainable and positive changes in society in Belgium, Europe, and worldwide. KBF works for change and innovation, aiming for the public good and enhancing social cohesion. It seeks to maximize impact by building capacity among organizations and people who contribute to the creation of a better society. It runs and funds long-term programs devoted to social justice and anti-poverty, health, heritage and culture, community engagement, international cooperation, climate, environment and biodiversity, Europe, education and talent development.
